Walter,
This implies that strategic thinking does not involve cognition, which seems bizarre.
Perhaps I should have said "this is where all the INTERESTING cognitive stuff happens". Then the only logical conclusion that follows from my statements is that longer term issues were not interesting (but then I guess there are some who might disagree with that).
Could you expand upon what you mean by 'cognitive stuff'?
I was thinking of the bands of human mental processing outlined in Allen Newell's "Unified Theories of Cognition". He puts human processes in the 100-10,000 in the rational band. For a more up to date version see: Anderson, J. R. (2002). Spanning seven orders of magnitude: A challenge for cognitive modeling.
